Find Clarity About Your Hereditary Cancer Risks
When cancer runs in your family or you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our AKT1 Gene Cowden Syndrome Type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand your genetic cancer risks and take control of your health journey.
Understanding Your AKT1 Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test examines your AKT1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The AKT1 gene plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth and division. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to Cowden Syndrome Type 6, a condition that significantly increases your risk for multiple types of cancer including breast, thyroid, endometrial, and others.
Our test doesn’t just provide results – it provides understanding. Through comprehensive genetic counselling, we help you interpret what your results mean for your health and your family’s future.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test may be right for you if you experience:
- Personal or family history of multiple cancers, particularly breast, thyroid, or endometrial cancer
- Unexplained skin growths, oral papillomas, or benign tumours
- Macrocephaly (larger than average head size)
- Developmental delays or autism spectrum disorders in your family
- Multiple family members with similar cancer patterns
- Early-onset cancers in your family history
If you’re feeling anxious about your family’s cancer patterns or experiencing symptoms that concern you, this test can provide the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.
